The organization conducting the seder is offering two more seders, one in Hamilton, on the 2nd of April, and one in London, on the 6th of April.
They write about the legacy of Rabbi Akiva, as well as the ritual part of the seder.

Grape juice (fruit of the vine) will be included for the ritual part of the Seder. Unfortunately, the Ontario Government has moved its application system for Special Occassion Permit online.http://www.jelithin.ca/seder-2018-london.html

I don't believe that ritual traditions and the legacy of Rabbi Akiva includes conducting the seders on the fourth day and the last day of Pesach. I also wonder why the faux spelling of occassion as opposed to thte true spelling, occasion? Is it to draw attention to the faux seder?

Below is a paragraph taken from a letter from the Lubavitcher Rebbe which can be viewed in its entirety by clicking the first link of the post.

As for the question, wherein lies the preservation of our people, and what is its historic destiny? - the answer is not difficult to find if we examine the pages of our history throughout the many centuries of our sojourn among the nations of the world. It is neither power, nor country, nor even a common language that preserved us in the past, but our Jewish way of life in accordance with the Torah, Torath Chayyim (the Law of Life) and Mitzvoth, whereby Jews live. Those who sought new ways, or staked the future of our Jewish people on other factors...disappeared without trace. Only the eternal Torah and Mitzvoth, the true Jewish way of life, preserved us in the past, as will preserve us in the future.

We are now in crazy times and the enemies of Torah are trying their darndest to remake the Torah so that Judaism can disappear, c'v. So much chaos and confusion is going on in the Jewish world to those who are Jewishly ignorant. Woe unto those Jews who fall into the trap of the wicked, because of their lack of any knowledge of how to be a Jew. May H' thwart the evil intentions of those working to try to undo Torah.
